Modification Time : D.LUFFY
Hi, I'm Toby.
I'm just a regular student or I was before I got zapped.
Now I'm some kind of science genius.
The only problem is: Elizabeth is too.
I heard she was at the shopping mall.
Guys, don't believe everything you read.
Nadine Sterling in Sandy Bay. No.
It says here, she is in town making a new movie.
A new movie in then Squeal series.
Squeal Four.
It's supposed to be even scarier than Squeal Three.
Although, Squeal One was my personal favorite.
Nadine Sterling is coming to our school.
No way.
Apparently, she wants to go to a normal school while she is in town.
Well, that is so grounded and down-to-earth
for a media superstar.
Oh, really, Verity. Life is too short for this.
Excuse me, that's mine.
Whatever. How old are you, anyway?
You are worshiping mindless bimbos?
I mean, please.
Acting doesn't exactly require intelligence, does it?
I guess we'll see how smart she is when she gets here.
Really? You believe anything.
She'd never come here.
Hollywood stars don't go to normal schools.
They have on-set tutors.
Nadine Sterling will arrive later today.
It was true.
Try to treat her like a normal person.
- But... -Settle down, settle down.
I know you're all excited but let's try not to go overboard.
Exactly.
It's not like she's a Nobel prize winner.
- She's just a movie star. -A drop-dead gorgeous one.
- And incredibly successful. -Successful at attracting morons.
I mean, does anyone actually find those pathetic horror movies scary?
- Are you kidding? -They' re scary, yes.
In fact, they're the fourth highest-grossing franchise
in Hollywood history.
But I am glad to see you're unaffected by her stardom, Elizabeth.
That's why Miss Hammer has selected you, as school captain,
to show Nadine around.
What?
Hello, I'm Nadine.
Welcome Miss Sterling.
I'm Miss Hammer. Principal of Sandy Bay.
It's nice to meet you.
And this is Elizabeth Hawke, our school captain.
Can I just say, what a great honor
it is to have you here at our humble school.
Thank you, Miss Hammer.
But I really don't want to be treated like a superstar.
I just want to be like everyone else.
You know? A normal student.
That must be hard.
It is.
Hollywood life is so unreal.
I just want to get a feel of what it's like to be average.
Well, like you.
I hear that your latest movie
is based on the story of a young local woman.
Violet Strickland, yes.
I think it's fantastic
that a person of your profile is visiting Sandy Bay.
I think you will make a wonderful Violet.
Thank you.
Miss Sterling will only have time for a few questions.
Yes.
Hi.
Is it true Violet was murdered on her wedding night?
Yes. People suspected her fiancee, Tyrell Prendergast.
He also vanished that night and was never seen again.
Yes.
Is it true you're filming at the actual house
-where Violet was murdered? -That's right.
It's so creepy there.
Violet's ghost is rumored to haunt the house to this very day.
Yes, Elizabeth.
Are we actually going to do any school work today?
In a very real sense, we are, Elizabeth.
Film making is full of all sorts of practical scientific applications.
- I seriously doubt that, sir. -Could we check out the set?
I really rather not, if you don't mind.
Quiet everyone.
I'm sure Nadine is far too busy to take you all on set.
Actually, I'd love to.
Good work, Russ. This is going to be so cool.
Hey, you should go and say hello to her.
Me? Hello? Like one on one?
I don't think so.
A guy like me would never have a chance
with a chick like Nadine Sterling.
Russ, don't be so hard on yourself.
It's never going to happen. I'm not rich, I'm not famous.
I don't even have a tan.
Are you alright?
Well...
You could damage yourself doing things like that.
- What have you got that for? -In case we see the ghost.
Waste of time.
Why did you want to come for, anyway?
No reason.
That's the room Violet is rumored to be thrown from.
- Except her body was never found. -Yeah? How does that work?
It was a dark night.
- A full moon. -Oh, please.
Neighbors heard raised voices coming from upstairs.
Then a ghastly scream,
falling down, then a thump.
But, when they investigated, there was no one there.
And Violet and Tyrell Prendergast were never seen again.
Will you just listen to yourself? She probably just ran away.
People swear they've heard Violet's voice coming from the house.
And some people
-have seen shades up in the woods. -Come on.
There has to be a rational explanation.
- Everything has a scientific basis. -Not necessarily.
Oh. The actress has a theory on science.
- That's neat. -Yes.
I believe there are some things that science can't explain.
Like love.
Love?
Did someone say love?
It's so dark in here?
- Is that Violet? -Yes, that's her.
And Tyrell.
She looks so sad.
Come on. I'll introduce you to our director.
Of course, Nadine, honey.
If you want to show your classmates around, by all means.
We won't get in the way.
- All you do is call. -Thanks, you're a legend.
Here's the ballroom.
You mean, this is where Violet Strickland was thrown from?
Yes.
Elizabeth. Can you hold this while I look for a light switch?
So, if there was a ghost. This is were it would be.
Don't be an infant. There are no ghosts.
I don't like this place.
People say the ghost of Violet still walks this very room.
You don't seriously believe that.
It's alright, Elizabeth. It's only me.
Good.
- Thanks guys. -Amazing.
I didn't think you'd actually get scared.
What?
Don't be ridiculous, I wasn't scared.
I was so scared. You looked so real.
- Yeah, I got it all on tape. -You were so freaked, Elizabeth.
I wasn't scared.
I wasn't.
Well, it's just a special effect, guys.
I thought I'll pick it as a trick.
I didn't think anyone would actually get scared.
Turn that off.
Here, I'll show it how it all works.
It's really cool. Look.
Scared?
I'll give you scared.
But she's a Hollywood star.
Nobody embarrasses me and gets away with it.
Careful with my camera.
I'll just sample the voicing.
Of course Nadine, honey,
if you want to show your classmates around.
And with a little modification.
Hello, Nadine, honey. It's me.
Hello?
Hello, Nadine, honey. It's me.
We've had a few technical problems. We need you for a reshoot tonight.
Tonight? But, I'm eating with friends.
Sorry, you know, no other way.
Alright. I'll be there.
I'll see you then.
Got to work, huh?
Maybe, if you want, you could come watch?
Really?
I'd love that.
- Where is everyone? -Maybe they've called it off.
They've probably parked at the back.
Cause they're being shot here.
Wasn't there a full moon the night Violet disappeared?
What was that?
-It's an owl, Russ. -That's not good.
Owls are a sign of bad things about to happen.
Everyone knows that.
And why are there no lights on?
The crew blacked out the windows for certain lighting effects inside.
Right. I knew that.
Hello?
Rex, are you there?
Is anyone here?
Okay, what's going on here?
Right. This is silly.
Someone is playing tricks. Rex, is that you?
- That's it. I'm going home. -I think that's wise.
It's locked. That's weird.
It must have been deadlocked.
It was probably just the wind.
You think you're scared now? Get this.
Okay. Is that the wind?
More like the growls of the undead.
Relax, guys,
there's got to be a rational explanation.
Nadine, is there another way out?
Yeah. A back entrance.
You two stay here, Sach and I will go...
Split up?
- Is that wise? -We'll be back soon, okay?
Ah, Toby. So predictable.
- Do I have to do this? -Of course you do.
- Here. Put this on. -What is it?
It's a speech modulator, it'll change the tone of your voice.
Yeah, I've got an earpiece here too.
What's that?
Relax. It's only my intraatomic space modifier spray.
Perfectly harmless. Hurry up.
Perfect.
Now, try the voice.
This is Violet Strickland.
Should we be looking for a different way out?
Toby said to stay here, so I think we should stay here.
What's that?
Why is it doing that?
Russ, get a grip.
It's got to be a special effect. Someone is playing games.
- How could you be so sure? -it's all done with wires, look.
Come on.
- But... but... -Just run, Russ.
It's locked too.
Whoever did this, didn't want us to leave.
Toby, look.
Follow. Follow.
- Let's find out what's going on. -Are you kidding?
She looks just like the girl in the photo.
It's Violet Strickland.
There she is.
Follow. Follow.
Follow.
Toby, please. Why are we following a ghost?
There's no such thing as ghosts, Sach.
If there's no such thing as ghosts, then how did it do that?
I don't know. But I'm planning on finding out.
The door. Where did it go?
All ready, Elizabeth.
Who am I again?
You're the ghost of Tyrell Prendergast.
Right. Got you.
This is getting stranger and stranger.
There's someone else involved here. And it smells like Elizabeth.
Quick, Sach. Grab me any spoons or metal you can find.
Coins, jewelry, anything.
What do I say?
I think it's best if you don't say anything.
- But Verity gets to talk. -Yeah. And you don't.
Alright, detecting lots of recently installed electronics.
That thing detects them?
Yeah. And they definitely weren't put here by a film company.
Verity, we have less time than we thought.
Nadine is in the ballroom. Go.
That's it.
The end of the line. There is no way out.
Yes, there is.
You can get out.
The same way I left.
Who's scared now?
Now, with a bit of luck, I should be able to control this.
- Garth, are you in position? -Yeah. I'm almost there.
Let's get out of here.
The ghost of Tyrell Prendergast.
Yeah. Boo.
Oh, no. Don't improvise.
Nice shoes, Tyrell.
Yeah. Got them real cheap too.
- Oops. -Come on.
Imbecile.
It's not very nice to be thrown out of the window.
That's what Tyrell found out.
But it was you who went out of the window.
Me? Oh, no.
That's where everyone's got it all wrong.
Tyrell planned to steal my fortune.
But he didn't kill me.
Oh, no.
I killed Tyrell.
No. no.
I knew it.
- Put them down. -You are such a party pooper.
You are such a party pooper.
- Russ. -What was that?
Nothing.
Just keep worthing, Russ.
- If that's your name. -How did you know my name?
- I just did, alright? - That doesn't sound very ghost like.
We could die, Russell. Do something.
Please.
- I know what's going here. -Please don't hurt us.
It's okay, she won't hurt you. No one is going to hurt you.
You. That's it. Let us down right now.
You won't like what I'll be forced to do if you don't.
Down. Now.
- Now, Elizabeth. - I said now.
Well, it was fun while it lasted.
Russ. You did it. It listened to you.
I can be a pretty persuasive guy.
You're so petty, Elizabeth.
You saved us Russ,
-you made her disappear. -No, it was nothing.
Actually, yeah.
That was pretty darn scary but... I mean it was life and death.
But, I just did any bit...
I think we should give them some privacy.
Sorry, Elizabeth. I didn't know what to say.
Really?
What was all that about Violet killing Tyrell?
- What made you say that? -You told me to say that.
No, I didn't. I was dealing with Toby.
I heard a voice.
If it wasn't you then...
Verity?
- Sach, it was a trick of the light. -Come on, you saw what I saw.
It's been educational being here.
I am glad you enjoyed being normal for a day.
Well, yes. Kind of.
- But you're no finishing the film. -Not just yet, we've rescheduled.
That's Hollywood talk.
I'm getting them to rewrite the screenplay.
I'm doing Violet's real story.
The story of how an innocent young woman
took revenge on her wicked husband.
- Wonderful. -I hope Violet likes it.
Russ.
My hero. It's all thanks to you.
Well, I just...
What was that all about?
I don't know, Miss. It's a mystery.
